Seaweed extracts

Concentrated seaweed extract is a popular naturally derived solution for promoting turf health and performance. It is made from sustainably harvested seaweed, and contains a rich source of complex biochemical compounds that are known to provide a range of non-nutritional benefits to turf.

These compounds include cytokinins, auxins, gibberellins, betaines, and other growth stimulants that can help boost root growth, improve stress tolerance, and enhance overall turf quality.

One of the main advantages of ICL’s SMX concentrated seaweed extract is its ability to improve the plant’s natural defense mechanisms against environmental stresses.

It helps turf to resist the effects of heat, drought, cold, and disease, by stimulating the production of protective compounds and strengthening the plant’s cell walls. In addition, it can also promote faster seed germination and establishment, as well as encourage faster recovery from damage.

ICL’s SMX concentrated seaweed extract is available in a variety of formulations, including liquid and granular form. It is easy to apply and can be used on a wide range of turf species, from golf greens and sports fields to lawns and parks.

By incorporating ICL’s SMX concentrated seaweed extract into a turf maintenance programme, turf managers can help promote healthy, resilient turf that is better equipped to withstand the challenges of the environmental pressures.
